I’m so excited to introduce you to a new pattern in the Molly and Mama range. It was designed specifically for the monthly subscribers of Sew Boxes. The theme for August was ‘Sewing Space Essentials’. So when Leesa asked me if I’d like to create a special hoop art appliqué, I knew exactly what I wanted to make. And here it is…

I’m hosting a little pin cushion swap via the Molly and Mama Facebook Page. It’s to celebrate the fourth anniversary of my little biz (which is a pretty special time for me!).

I’ve been wanting to write a post about the new year, well….. ever since the new year. And I can’t believe that we’re nearing the end of February! If you’re anything like me, you’ll be wondering where the time goes. Sorry it’s taken me so long! I wanted to start 2015 with some very clear goals, plans and ideas because I…
It’s high Summer here and it’s not long until we celebrate our national day; Australia Day. When I think of our gorgeous country, I think of green and gold, the beach, the summer, the sun, and our tropical surrounds.

Is it just me, or does Christmas come around quicker every year? It’s scary! I’ve been visiting Pinterest and blog land, looking for gorgeous crafty tutorials and ideas for Christmas gift giving and decor. And I’ve come up with some lovely projects.
